Attitude 122: Romance

  • Have you ever imagined yourself writing a book or composing a song? What if we turned our daily lives into a tangle of intersecting narratives, stories, people and places that we discover, between deconstructed, somewhat romanticised symbolisms? In this issue, our prose takes its cue from physical spaces where actions take place and unfold. A meeting point for dialogues, like the subtlety of a music score, between textures, shapes and rhythms. If played repetitively, we slip into the monotony of routine. But here, each item is like a new piece of music that describes a new chapter. And so, we challenge our readers to explore different dynamics and intensities, through ambiences that take us from pianissimo to fortissimo. Too much music for your liking?
  • Our suggestion is to allow yourself to be inspired by the composition of the following pages, which bring a new breath of air – whether it's through the refreshing graphic nuances or the places we propose and reveal to you. This Romance unfolds through a myriad of scenarios that combine suggestions which resonate with comfort, sophistication, connection and materiality. At the same time, we want to strip away any pretentiousness and savour the varied forms of expression that come to us from the four corners of the world.
  • Meet Sofia Barros, for instance, our guest in the Meet section – who takes us on a journey between art and nature – or in the Profile section, where we present a chronicle by Elizaveta Oputina, who shares the practical side of Artificial Intelligence with us. Travel with us to A Coruña to celebrate the centenary of Irving Penn's work, and to Frankfurt to learn about next season's trends and innovations in the textile world. With plenty of unexpected delights in between, in just the blink of an eye we reach the much-anticipated Interiors – ranging from Shanghai to São Paulo, we bring you a sequence of homes articulated through converging styles and influences.
  • Whether you're relaxing on the sofa, taking a break from travelling or enjoying a sunny outdoor terrace, our suggestion is that you keep leafing through the edition, discovering more and allowing yourself to be seduced by inspiring realities.
